New York Knicks vs. Indiana Pacers — Game 2

Josh Hart Over 15.5 Points (-145)

I’ve been highlighting Hart’s points prop consistently over the last few weeks, with the latest being 15+ for Game 1.

The guy just keeps hitting it.

Tom Thibodeau’s iron man isn’t known for scoring, but that’s exactly what he’s been doing over the last few weeks. Hart racked up at least 16 in five of the six games against Philly, and continued that hot streak into Game 1 of Knicks-Pacers on Monday with 24 on an extremely efficient 9-13 from the field.

To put it simply, until he cools off or this line massively adjusts, I’m going to keep picking it for these matchups. Hart’s usage rate has spiked in the postseason, eclipsing 16% in four of last series’ contests. It jumped all the way up to 20% in Game 1 against Indiana, which is massive for him.

Another crazy stat? 48 minutes.

That’s how many the 29-year-old played Monday night. He quite literally did not come out of the game, which is the third time that’s happened so far this postseason!! Thibs is notorious for running guys into the ground, but it just doesn’t seem like that’s possible with Hart so far.

As long as he continues to see a massive workload tonight, I expect the veteran wing to keep his hot streak rolling.
